2/3 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons brandy
1 teaspoon ground ginger
FILLING:
4 cups heavy whipping cream
1-3/4 cups confectioners' sugar
1/2 cup brandy
Grated chocolate, optional

Steps:

In a small saucepan, combine the butter, sugar and corn syrup. Cook and stir over medium heat until butter is melted. Remove from the heat. Stir in the flour, brandy and ginger., Drop by teaspoonfuls, 3 at a time, 3 in. apart onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake at 350° for 7-8 minutes or until golden brown., Cool for 30-45 seconds. Working quickly, loosen each cookie and curl around a thick wooden spoon handle. (If cookies become too cool to shape, return to oven for 1 minute to soften.)

Just before serving, pipe cream mixture into cookies. Sprinkle ends with chocolate if desired.
